Fat-Free Buttermilk

Fat-Free Buttermilk

EverydayUnsweetened

Fat-free buttermilk is a cultured dairy product made by fermenting skim milk with lactic acid bacteria, creating its signature tangy flavor and slightly thickened consistency. While traditional buttermilk contains residual butterfat, this version removes all milkfat during processing, significantly reducing calories while retaining beneficial probiotics. Its acidity activates baking soda in recipes, making it a staple for tender baked goods like pancakes and biscuits, though it also works well in marinades and dressings.
